  • to taste salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  1. Season the filet mignon steaks generously with salt and pepper.

Notes

This dish pairs beautifully with a crisp white wine. Consider adding a splash of lemon juice to the cream sauce for enhanced flavor. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days; reheat gently to preserve the sauce's texture. Avoid freezing as it may compromise the cream sauce's consistency.
